I, Am But a Puzzle

M.E.M.

Each piece that encompasses me
Creates who you see before you.
A complex and nuanced individual
with hopes and fears
dreams and obsessions.

Many wish to solve me
But give up after too long
Or become aggravated when they don’t get the picture they wanted.

All my many pieces
Make up a larger picture of who I am
When looked at from afar.

I am but a puzzle among many
On this conundrum that is earth.

    Liked this, but are you a conundrum to yourself? Ignore them and focus on understanding yourself. Not as easy as it sounds; it can be a lifelong project...
